Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny accuses Russian head of state Vladimir Putin of using poisonous property the size of a city built with billions of rubles on behalf of his friends as a vacation home.
According to Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, Russian head of state Vladimir Putin has commissioned a luxury property worth hundreds of billions of rubles (400 billion guilders, which approximates the cost of building the Metro 4 in Budapest) with fraudulent funds, which of course are not in his name, reveals the Moscow Times article. . Navalny’s research team made a nearly two-hour video of the story. The Praskovejevka estate is located on the Black Sea coast in southern Russia.
The Russian media had already linked the naval palace to Putin a decade ago. According to Navalny, it is not simply a country house or a residence, but an entire small town, or rather a duchy. Aerial photos from the drones show a two-story aristocratic mansion built in a classical style, and images from inside show that an amphitheater, an underground ice rink and a tunnel to the sea complete the property.
The area is surrounded by an impenetrable fence, it has its own port, security system, church, access control system and there is a ban on flying over it. According to Navalny, it is practically separated from the territory of Russia. Its extension is 7,000 hectares (more than seventy times that of Margaret Island in Budapest), owned by the Russian secret service, the FSB, which leased it to a company last fall until 2068, according to official information, to provide investigative services , education, hunting and fishing.
Navalny presents a complex process of corruption that, with the participation of Putin’s inner circle, allowed him to hide billions of rubles to build the property. He gave those close to him public servant positions and positions in state-owned companies, which he used to hide his wealth. These people, according to the opposition leader, could eat whatever they wanted in Russia.
